A 21-year-old Linn County man was sentenced Wednesday to 12 years in prison for sex trafficking of two girls under the age of 18.

Chief U.S. District Judge Ann Aiken also ordered that Steven Anthony Kidd serve five years of post-prison supervision once his prison term ends.

According to the U.S. Attorney's Office, Kidd booked hotel rooms, posted ads soliciting customers of prostitution and drove a girl to locations in Oregon and Washington to meet with customers throughout 2012. He slapped and hit the girl, the government's sentencing memorandum states, and collected the proceeds from the more than 40 times she engaged in acts of prostitution at his direction.

The memorandum, written by Assistant U.S. Attorney Jeff Sweet, also states that Kidd similarly solicited customers and booked hotel rooms for a second girl to engage in acts of prostitution twice in December 2012.

He was arrested Dec. 19, 2012 at a home in Albany. Among other things, agents found two pistols and a notebook he kept with his handwritten notes for sex-trafficking of girls, for whom he used a vulgarity. The notes called for breaking their phones, requiring them to always look at the ground and to "make them fear DADDY."
